Summertime = bikini time!!!
it has been almost 4 months since my implants, and I've grown to be comfortable with them! I love the self-confidence boost of having larger, fuller breasts and now I feel great wearing a bikini:). After seeing all the changes over the months in the breast size and shape, I do wish I had gone a little bigger...and still hoping for more of a fuller look on the lower half of my breast...my implants never really 'dropped' into their pockets like I had wanted. Even with thorough massaging and always wearing my surgical bra with the Velcro strap above my breasts for added compression of the tissue/implant downward, still not much of a drop. With all that being said, I am very happy with the results and my surgeon did a wonderful job trying to fulfill all my expectations! Here's a few new pics...
Bra Shopping! Post op week 5
Hello ladies and gents! This week marks week 5 from my BA with silicone gel implants! I had my one month post op appointment with Dr.Pousti and it went really well. He said they are healing nicely...just waiting for them to drop fully. My right has dropped quicker than the left, but I'm patiently waiting;). Dr. Pousti took the steri strips off! Yay! The incisions look good, just need to keep my hands from picking and my eyes from examining:). Ha! If you all have been following my posts on here, you know how it's been an emotional ride. It's so true, but I couldn't be happier with my decision and am so thankful and grateful to Dr. Pousti and his amazing team! Remember: the number one most important decision is choosing the best and most experienced PS! This alone is the most important factor is the greatest results, along with detailed and excellent communication as to what you want! The nurses cleared me to now start wearing supportive sports bras! Bye bye surgical bras;). So, today I went bra shopping for the first time! It was so fun looking at my new boobs in bras:). I only bought sports bras for now, and will get measured for regular (sexy) bras in a month or so when my implants have hopefully dropped and fluffed:). I ordered one bra online by Glamorise (32D), and my size right now is 32 DD at Victoria's Secret;) I can't even believe it!!! From an A cup to this....amazing!!
Still hoping for these wish boobs!!!
Week 4 post op...feeling good most days, just still having tightness and painful muscle spasms at times...and occasionally I have a really bad pain under my left boob. It feels like a tearing, pulling sensation but it only lasts for a few minutes and goes away. If I move in a certain position, it happens all over again and takes my breath away! Anyone else experiencing this? I have my f/u appt on Monday so hopefully all is going okay. I'm loving my new boobs! I can't wait for the steri strips to come off, I'm leaving them on as long as possible for better incision healing (fingers-crossed)! I meant to mention this early on about my PS just forgot to post it...but, Dr. Pousti made my incision infra areolar and uses the Keller Funnel Method to insert the silicone implants. He has videos on you tube and on his web page if you wanna check it out! My boobs have changed a lot, gone through many different phases as the healing takes place, but I'm still hoping that as the implants drop, my nipples perk up again:). They are still not dropping and I massage every day, but sometimes I can't because of the pain:(. I'm showing off my "wish boobs" that were on my vision boob board;). Hoping they look similar...I'm not expecting perfection! I've accepted that even though I strive for it!! Haha:).
